Update to 10.68 and now can't Open my HD in Finder? Seriously??
Problem: When I click on the desktop icon for my Hard Drive, a window for the contents-view fails to open - there is a
brief flash of what appears to be an attempt to open but it doesn't 'resolve'. I just noticed that after a few 'tries' it sometimes
gives me a window. Obviously this isn't right...
Recent History abt. this machine - I migrated contents of one -running 10.5.8 to another Imac which had been functioning normally with SL 10.6 on it.
I went through the Setup Assistant routine - i.e. wiped the previous install of 10.6 and then reinstalled SL using the one-time Setup Assistant feature
to migrate the other machine's stuff over to this one. After doing so, I've noticed this behavior. Flaky finder.... and also a noticeable lag and glitchy
issues in using an audio interface application that is USB-based but that's another subject. As a main recording studio unit, this finder weirdness
has to be cleared up asap or i need to go back to the old machine with Leopard - which at least didn't have this instability.
Any ideas, thoughts, fixes or acknowledgements of known issues - greatly appreciated...
Thanks!!
